> 24 hourHere is how to modify the President Richard for CB radio operation: 1) Open it up and install a Jumper Wire where the picture shows the circled image. (You can also look at the review from Notachi where he uses a Red jumper wire at the same location.) 2) Then go into the menu & enter code 1234 at the PD menu location. (PD 1234) 3) Now you have a High Performance CB Radio.

> 24 hourVery few ham radio operators use AM of FM modulation on the high frequency bands. Although, there a few FM repeaters on the 10 m band. This radio is not very useful to licensed ham radio operators. If, you buy this radio, please make the 11 m conversion and stay off the ham bands. Do your illegal and disruptive business on CB.

> 24 hourThe Prince Albert can be expensive, subject over the air infections and down right tacky. President Richard is hardy. Easy to place in tight spaces and offers a more visually appealing, natural appeal. Don’t be fooled. Most Prince Albert rigs are tiny and don’t deliver what they promise. A true President Richard rig gets in there and blows your competition away. Everyone will be stunned at potent and completion shaming your rig will provide when placed head to head with a Prince Albert.

> 24 hourVery easy to convert to 11 meter if you can solder. 1 little jumper . Look it up on YouTube. This is the best radio you can buy under 200 bucks

> 24 hourPretty good radio for money. Online instructions for solder points are correct. Look for white line on board. Good radio for channel 19... Auto squelch is pretty nice and squelches well, although I wish it would somewhat fade in and hold a little longer, rather than having quiet interrupted by a sudden blast of sound then quiet again, then another blast of sound. Reminds me of the old cobra 19’s. Not very refined in that sense. Turn squelch knob all the way left for auto squelch. Lots of different settings that are fun to play with. I like the beeping swr meter as I can make adjustments quickly with window rolled down and door closed without having to get back in and key up every time. I would MUCH rather it use a 4 pin mic, since I never use the Mic up/down channel buttons anyway. The mic sounds ok but not great, and feels cheapy. Overall good buy in my opinion.
